“16 day tour of Vietnam”

This trip was awesome. Organisation was excellent and the tour guides were very knowledgeable and attentive. Vehicle was a transit van which was pretty cool considering there was only 4 of us on the tour. I would recommend this to anyone.
10 out of 10 for me. Thank you to tour guides Khoa, in Hanoi, Mr Ten in the central & to Khoa In the south for sharing your country with us.

“Our third trip to Vietnam in three years.”

We have just returned from 10 days in Vietnam and it was just as amazing as it has been in previous years. Once again Mr Le from Asia Pacific Travel organized all details to perfection. This year we went to Sa Pa, Halong Bay and made return visits to Hanoi and Hoi An. We stayed at the Vinh Hung resort in Hoi An and were welcomed back with open arms. Our travels in Vietnam with Asia Pacific have been the most enjoyable, stress free and economical touring we have ever done in many years of travelling all over the world.

“Amazing experience way beyond we paid for!”

We paid for 2 star cruise, got upgraded to 4 star, for free! And the overall experience was 12 out of 10. The agent, Ms. Hai, was very friendly and patient when we contacted her through her personal number. The tour guide was cool as well, though his English is not perfect yet still understandable. The crew on board were awesome! The food is overflowing, too much of too many great food! We definitely recommend this agency. I have zero complaints.

“Hanoi - Sapa - HaLong Bay 2016”

A compliment to Ms Hai (Sale Exe) who arranged the itinerary for me and my family! She do follow up service and keep on track with my tour schedule. Also thank to Mr Quan (My private tour guide in Sapa). He explained the story and history of Sapa to me. So that I am further understand about Sapa!! Overall for this trip is good! Just the trip to HaLong Bay the time arrangement could be more punctual instead of need to wait for so long. (Even transfer back from HaLong Bay to Hanoi) also not on time at all
Punctuality is important.
Tour guide for cruise dint communicate much with us.
But in conclude I am still satisfied with your services.
Vietnam I will come back again next year!! It's an amazing country!

“Three fabulous days in Saigon”

Asia Pacific travel from start to finish we're perfect. Airport pickup to hotel to tours and advice on best restaurants was just fantastic. We had three full days to stay in Saigon and planned for two days to tour one to rest but our Guide Mr Hieu "Jacky" suggested one more tour to Nui Dat and Long Tan Battlefields, my sincere gratitude to him as it was the highlight of our visit, our driver Mr Lys Lys could not be faulted, absolutely Fantastic.

“One of the best tour operator ”

First time in Ho Chi Minh City and having done alot of research on what different tour operators were able to offer, the reviews with Asia Pacific Travel Tours won us over. We booked the 6Days 5Night tour well in advance requesting late arrival start and a preferred place to stay . Mr. Le Thuc (Lee) Sales Executive and our tour guide ( Mr. Jacky) was extremely accomodating of our needs, The tour exceeded our expectations, not only was he a great tour guide Mr. Hieu (Jacky) he was extremely knowledgable and we left Saigon with so much more knowledge and appreciation for the history, culture and lifestlye of the Vietnamese The highlight of our trip and the tour was the Mekong Delta tour, simply breathtaking! An unforgettable experience and having never returned to any country we've travelled a second time, we intend to return next year to book another tour with Asia Pacific Tours.

We had a great visit to Hoi An on the 11th and 12th of August. We had the privilege of being shown around by Mr. Moi (Ten) Tran. from Asia Pacific Travels. By far, he was the best guide we had during the entire week long trip to Vietnam. He took the time to explain things in much detail, was sensitive to the needs of my in-laws and was patient with us as we struggled with the very hot and humid weather. He always had a smile on his face and made us feel comfortable. We learned a lot and got to see very diverse parts of Hoi An, thanks to his advice.

Our 21 days trip in June 2016 was the second time we booked through Asia Pacific. Even though we are seasoned travelers, we felt it's worth leaving the planning to Ms. Chi again for she had perfected the previous trip. Our very fun and dedicated guide, Mr. Hieu, made sure our trip was hitch-free, taking care of every details planned in the itinerary from hotel check-in to airport transfers. I especially appreciated his shared knowledge of Vietnamese history, local customs and culture. Moreover, he helped us explore places only known to the locals and even taught us how to bargain when we shopped. It was awesome!

Thank you so much Ms Susan for organising and coordinating our 18 day trip. Also for accomodating our many requests. Our self tailored adventure wouldn't have been possible without your expert local knowledge and staff. We were so
impressed with how everything was coordinated and all in the most timely
manner...from our emails, to drivers, guides, hotels etc. We will most
certainly pass on your contact details to friends and family planning a
visit to Vietnam in the future.

Our itinerary was well planned by Ms Chi with just the right amount of activities to show us all the must sees in our trip from North of Vietnam – Central of Vietnam and South of Vietnam. The lunches that were included in the package were well thought out with different local Vietnamese dishes for us to experience. They were all very delicious too.
Our guides, Mr Hào in Hà NÙi - H¡ Long – Sa Pa. Mr ThiÁu in Hu¿ - HÙi An – à N³ng. Mr Hi¿u in Saigon was also very friendly, knowledgeable with English very influential to able to tell us and special my nieces and nephew who completely didn’t know anything about our country with any single of histories in every step of place we were and always have excellent recommendations for our dinner. Thank you for all you’re organized, detail to perfection how beautiful country and we would surely recommend Asia Pacific Travel day tours to our friends.
With Asia Pacific and special with Ms Chi for planner, Mr Hào, Mr ThiÁu, Mr Hi¿u our guide and all our drivers we went the trip as a family on vacation not like a tour guy with customer we sharing knowledges, fun, summer heat and delicious of local dishes. This vacation trip with Asia Pacific will be in our memory for ever.
Our travels in Vietnam with Asia Pacific have been the most enjoyable, stress free and economical touring we have ever done in many years of travelling all over the world.
